    Backup Camera Intermittent Operation - 2015 EL XLT

    The manual does a decent job of showing you what to do. You need to remove the inside panel, I just detached about 2/3 of it, I didn't need to take the whole thing off. Then you can get to the nuts that hold on the outside trim which houses the camera.

    Backup Camera Intermittent Operation - 2015 EL XLT

    I got a camera on ebay for $55, but I haven't installed it yet because my original backup camera has been working fine. I took the original out just to see if I could and re-installed it. Maybe doing that cleaned the contacts or something, because it's been fine ever since. I did read that if I...

    Backup Camera Intermittent Operation - 2015 EL XLT

    I can get a replacement FL1T-19G490-AC camera on ebay for about $60. I don't know it it's any good, but it's probably worth a try.

    Backup Camera Intermittent Operation - 2015 EL XLT

    I got the old camera out. Part number i n FL1T-19G490-AC. Does the whole part number matter, or is the "19G490" the only important part. I uploaded some pics of the liftgate and camera module.

    Backup Camera Intermittent Operation - 2015 EL XLT

    I ended up purchasing the service manual on ebay for $10. I wasn't positive if it would be the right thing, but I think it's what I need.

    Backup Camera Intermittent Operation - 2015 EL XLT

    Anyone know how to access the camera for an Expedition? I found some YouTube videos on the Explorer, but the Explorer liftgate is a lot different than the Expedition. I don't see any bolts and I'm reluctant to just go yanking on trim without knowing the right way to remove it.

    Backup Camera Intermittent Operation - 2015 EL XLT

    I've got a 2015 EL and my camera is dying. I brought it to Ford today and they said the camera needs to be replaced. I'm considering doing it myself. Is the part number for the camera: FL1Z-19G490-B? Looking online it's going for about $260 or more.

    Where is door open sensor

    I have a 2011 Expedition. What sensor is telling the car the door is open? If I hold the door closed but pull on the outside door handle, the car doesn't think the door is open, but if I open the door just a tiny amount, it's able to detect it. I want to tap into the door open signal.

    Snow Tire Recommendation

    I have a 2011 Expedition. I live in NJ and in the winter I drive up to Vermont every weekend to go skiing (210 miles each way). My Expedition does pretty well in the snow, but I'm thinking of getting snow tires. I don't do any off-roading, I'm always on pavement. I just want better tires for...

For the most part my Expedition does very well in the snow, but I was thinking of getting some chains for the nasty weather I run into from from...

    Is GPS in 2011 Expedition any good?

    Thanks for the info. I heard on this forum and the fordsyncforum.com that the turn-by-turn wasn't very good. I'm glad to hear you like it so much.
